Abilities Research Center
The Abilities Research Center (ARC) is a combined clinical and research center that brings together scientists, clinicians, engineers, artists, and storytellers with one collective goal: using technology to help individuals improve their physical capabilities. We investigate and implement novel, technological solutions to enable individuals with disabilities to maximize their self-sufficiency and mobility, while also working with healthy individuals to reach for higher levels of performance.
